Feel free to send a patch or open a bug report. Never mind, I filed the bug myself: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83007 I also made it a 6.0 blocker, because if it's not fixed before 6.0, then Glenn will probably document it in a man page, and I think it's a bit silly to document bugs in man pages when they aren't really all that hard to fix. I'll fix the bug by 6.0 if nobody else writes a patch first (I don't have time to work on that right now). -- Tanu
